Default nothing like takin` out a ferrari!!

on my way to captree(car cruise by the beach) sunday morning, three ferrari`s and a porsche coming on strong behind me taking up all three lanes. they pull up right to my backside and slowly make their way around me and go in front. I`m cruising at around 50(speed limit is 35). a nice curve is coming up so I speed up right behind them and let them hear the pontiac roar. one of them pulls up along side of me after the curve and says "let`s go". so we go, and I proceeded to leave him about three car lengths behind me. I got off the gas at around 120, he pulls up to me and says "that`s not stock is it?" I just laughed and said no and we went on our way. now here`s the best part, I pulled into the show and got out of my car and the three ferrari owners are walking by. I was going to go talk to them until I heard them arguing about the race. one owner was yelling at the guy I raced asking him if he downshifted and the guy screams "of course I downshifted". I just kept on walking with a big smile on my face. it was a 2006 f430 by the way.
